Well I bid on several rifles (absentee) and ended up with lot 379 a Hoffman Mauser! I may have a couple more if I was the tie breaker but I don't think so. I was kind of surprised at the prices myself considering the rifles were so well documented but it is nice that the family got what was expected. This will be my first and hopefully not last pre war custom to go into my collection. I know it sounds silly but besides obvious reasons I am partial to Hoffmans because of the Oklahoma connection.
